We were placed upstairs which was quieter than the main floor and more conducive to conversation. However, seemed as though we were an after thought by our server. Very infrequent check-ins by him. My order was wrong and once the waiter came back to begin to remedy, the rest of the table needed to eat before their meals were cold. By the time I received my correct order everyone else was done eating. Very little acknowledgment of mistake and nothing done for service rescue. My husband’s meal was subpar - not sure we will return anytime soon!!!

Went for brunch on Easter morning. Seemed to be first to arrive but even after asking to be seated elsewhere were seated in the bar where the music was too loud. Food was ok but not great. The coffee cake was dry and stale tasting. Wo t return for brunch

Jam's is off the list! Fish in the fish taco was oozing liquid. It wasn't sauce. It was coming from the fish! The coconut chicken was so overcooked that I could not chew it. My order was also not prepared the way I ordered. Had I had a food allergy, I would have had to have sent it back. Our server didn't even notice.

We didn’t start well when our hostess refused to seat us at a booth rather than a table we were originally taken to. We would have been willing to wait beyond our reservation time or be seated at a half booth, of which there were several which were open and remained open during the entire time we were at Jams. Besides this, our food was very good and service by our waiter was excellent.

Lunch on a blustery Omaha day. Meat loaf, potatoes, gravy and vegetables. Large portions, hot, vegetables firm and tasty. Meatloaf itself juicy, gravy was great, but no real evidence of spice. Sliced peppers were too small, so easily overcooked ... but still a nice addition. Green beans and carrots were an excellent foil to the comfort food ensemble. Well done. Only negative was the layout. Booth was a U shape and too big for two people. This was more a bar setup then appropriate for a meal. Not a real detractor to a great meal, but still not optimum.

Majority of the food that we ordered always came out cold. The menu that said asparagus with your meal did not say fried asparagus that was disappointing. The food was good though. The lettuce wraps are to die for! The waitress was really good at listening and helping you with the menu.

We have eaten at Jams several times and last night was literally the worst in service and food. Food arrived cold and salmon was served raw. When we sent the raw fish back, the kitchen decided it would be appropriate to microwave the fish. It was delivered back hot but still raw. The server was asked to take it back again and he did but did not offer a new dish to replace it. When the bill was delivered the meal was still on the bill. The server could not grasp what the issue was. The manager never came to the table to apologize for the issues. They were not overly full of patrons either. Jams failed this time for sure.
